Especially for people doing services (running, mission, etc) theres should be an option to boot the character to his previously outpost. If the person goes afk on purpose in a mission or run in where he is so pose to pay halve way or be4 the service is over, it should give the party leader the option to boot him from the party and sent back to the outpost he was last in. Now i can see this being abused in a way if u have no life and just want to be a bad player, the party leader can boot some1 be4 the mission is over or scam the player. But whats the difference of scamming some1 like that if u can just easily leave the party. As well as why should party leader boot the character be4 the mission is over if he can needed thereafter. If some1 goes afk during a mission in where every1 is needed and desperately need the last player, the spot can be instantly replaced by an NPC ally that can be controlled by party leader via the map flags, but not customizable like heroes. Although if some1 does go afk, there should be an afk emote in where the it will show when the character went afk like in WoW.

EX: /afk
Fatal Fury has gone AFK, in of course green txt.

This is to alert every1 in the party, and the character will just simply sit down to show afk status. If this is done in an outpost, instead of it showing in green txt so no1 can abuse the chat system, it will just say AFK next the his/her title.

You're not thinking about how it could be abused.

A common complaint in high-level areas was for monks to deliberately get people killed after they get a good drop and refrain from raising them until they give up and quit or the item binds. With this system, all they'd need to do is make sure one of them is the party leader and they'd just need to use your proposed command.

I can understand the desire, but I'd rather have the occasional freeloader than finding myself booted from a party just as an ecto drops...

yeah,i could see it as being abused, some just for a joke,bored or whatever.

for the running thing, maybe in trade window a "trade on location" button, as in next outpost person auto gets "X" amount, just like a normal trade but certain conditions must be met.

i can see where this can be brought to an extent of chaos lol, at least the AFK emote will prove useful

Or you could just type afk in team chat and save that "/"?
